Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for producing a three-dimensional object in layers and in particular to the packaging of the finished object and the unsolidified powder surrounding it.
  • the powder to be solidified is kept ready in a storage container. From this storage container, a certain amount of powder is first placed in a so-called coater and by means of this coater the powder is applied in layers to a support plate.
  • the surface of the applied layer is called the construction area.
  • Predetermined areas of the applied powder layer are solidified by an energy source. These solidified areas correspond to the respective cross section of the object to be manufactured within the layer just applied.
  • a new layer of powder is then applied and the areas of this new layer corresponding to the respective cross section of the object to be manufactured are solidified.
  • the carrier plate is usually lowered by an amount corresponding to the thickness of this layer. The construction area is therefore always on the same level.
  • the space into which the carrier plate and the layers on it can be lowered is called the construction space in technical language. This space is laterally limited by walls.
  • the floor of the installation space is formed by the carrier plate.
  • a hat-like container is known above the construction area, by means of which the manufactured object and the unsolidified powder surrounding it can be removed from the construction chamber.
  • a hat-like container is an object that surrounds a volume and is open on one side, with the opening usually pointing downwards.
  • a container without a closure has the disadvantage that powder can be lost in an uncontrolled manner.
  • Using a container without a closure can also lead to contamination of the interior areas of the device with powder. This is particularly disadvantageous when different types of powder are used one after the other in the same machine, since residues of the previously used powder can adversely affect the properties of the object later produced on this machine.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in that the manufactured object and the powder surrounding it can be inserted together with a closure element out of the installation space into the hat-like container and the container can then be closed with a closure element.
  • the closure element preferably has a cross section which corresponds to the opening of the hat-like container.
  • the base plate which is absolutely necessary in the layered production of metal objects, is used as a closure element for the hat-like container.
  • a base plate is in the EP 0734 842 A1 described what is referred to as a reference.
  • the entire unit of closure element, manufactured component and surrounding non-solidified powder can be packaged in one operation, including the non-solidified powder, and the container can be closed.
  • the base plate can advantageously serve as a closure element at the same time, which means that a separate closure element can advantageously be dispensed with.
  • the Figure 1 shows a sectional view of a device according to the invention.
  • the cutting line runs approximately in the middle of the construction area.
  • the manufactured object 1 is surrounded by a powder bed 2 on a base plate 3 constructed in a known manner.
  • the base plate 3 in turn is connected to a support plate 4.
  • the connection between the base plate 3 and the carrier plate 4 is designed to be detachable.
  • the type of releasable connection is not shown in detail, since it is irrelevant for the functioning of the present invention which type of releasable connection is used. Both positive and non-positive connections can be used. (Adhesive, vacuum or bayonet connection)
  • the carrier plate 4 can be moved up and down by means of a drive, not shown.
  • a container 6 is attached above the building level 5.
  • the container 6 is open on its side facing the construction level and has a cross section which corresponds to the cross section of the construction area.
  • the container 6 is positioned on the construction level 5 so that its inner wall is aligned with the inner wall of the construction space.
  • the container 6 sits in a holder 7, which can be moved parallel to the construction level 5 by a drive, not shown. During the actual manufacturing process, the container 6 is located outside the beam path of the energy source which is used to solidify the powder.
  • the container is positioned over the construction area.
  • a circumferential seal 8 is provided, which seals the gap between the holder 7 and the construction level 5.
  • the Figure 2 shows it off Figure 1 known elements, the base plate 3 and the object 1 produced on this base plate 3 being pushed up into the container 6 together with the powder 2. By pushing it in, a pressure increase can occur in the container 6, which can, if necessary, be released in a controlled manner through a valve 9.
  • the Figure 3 shows the situation after the carrier plate has been moved down again.
  • the detachable connection between base plate 3 and carrier plate 4 was previously released.
  • the base plate 3 remained in the container 6 due to the friction between the outer edge of the base plate 4 and the inner wall.
  • the base plate 3 is pushed into the container 6 so far that the lower edge of the container 6 can be flanged. This flanging reliably ensures that the base plate 3 with the manufactured object 1 or the powder 2 remains in the container 6 during further transport.
  • no separate carrier plate is provided.
  • the drive which in the previous embodiments is provided for lowering the carrier plate, engages directly on the closure element, so that there is a detachable connection between the closure element and the drive.
  • the container In order to remove the container together with it from the installation space after the object has been manufactured, the container is closed with the closure element and then the detachable connection between the closure element and the drive is released.
  • the invention can be used commercially in the layered production of objects.
